Above and below–research challenges for the future of winegrape production

Introduction

Grapevines interact with the climate (aboveground) and the soil (belowground), affecting the characteristics of winegrapes produced. These interactions are impacted by climate change, the erosion of biodiversity, and losses of soil organic matter (SOM). A valuable resource for adaptation to these impacts, however, may exist in the great genetic diversity in rootstocks, varieties, and clones. This presentation addresses the major abiotic impacts of these global changes on winegrape production and identifies avenues for future research.
